Beautifully decorated, clean and full of all things for a comfortable stay. We mainly were there to hike as many trails as possible Acadia National Park. We found Bar Harbor too crowded so checked out Ellsworth. We enjoyed the food and beer at Fogtown brewery and Airline Brewing

Very secluded. Nice area. Unit was as listed. If arriving after dark as we did, the road (more of a driveway) isn’t easily seen. Very convenient to many restaurants and shopping. Arcadia park is easily accessible from the unit. Would stay again.

Private wooded retreat

We enjoyed our stay at the Wooded Retreat. It was very clean, neat and spacious. It had a well equipped kitchen and laundry area which we appreciated. It was a great location, private and away from the crowds, yet easy to get to everything.

The cottage was welcoming, well furnished, cozy and very clean. The host was friendly, lived nearby and was there when needed, very attentive, but otherwise made herself scarce and gave us privacy on our stay. There were plenty of restaurants we wanted to check out in the area, but found ourselves using the grill for dinner and staying in most nights. It was nice to experience the crowded tourist attractions during the day, and have a comfortable, quiet place to relax at night. I highly recommend.
